I'm not too confident in replacing the plug (visions of flooding after...

    Leaking mains stopcock

    The internal stopcock was closed for the first time in about a year as part of a bathroom installation. Now that it's open (I leave it a quarter turn from fully open) it has a slight leak, approx half an egg cup full in 24 hours. Should I get it replaced? Thanks in advance.
